Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of intelligent extraction of agricultural plastic mulching, in particular to an agricultural plastic mulching extraction method combining multi-modal remote sensing and deep learning, belonging to the application fields of agricultural ecological environment safety, agricultural precision management, remote sensing intelligent monitoring, etc. BACKGROUND

[0002] As an important technical carrier of modern agricultural intensification, agricultural plastic mulching (plastic film and plastic greenhouse) plays a key role in improving multiple cropping index and ensuring food production, and has been widely used worldwide. However, long-term mulching and lack of residual film recycling system have led to soil structure destruction, biodiversity degradation, and microclimate imbalance, etc. Therefore, accurately grasping the spatial distribution of agricultural plastic mulching is helpful to improve agricultural management efficiency and scientifically assess the potential risk area of agricultural plastic pollution, which is crucial for balancing high crop yield and ecological environment protection.

[0003] At present, China's agricultural plastic mulching monitoring system mainly relies on statistical data and field investigation. Statistical data mainly focus on the use scale of plastic film, lacking key information such as spatial distribution and temporal variation; although field investigation method can obtain spatial distribution, it is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and has small survey range, lacking timeliness, which is difficult to meet the needs of modern agricultural precision and efficient management.

[0004] In recent years, remote sensing technology has provided a new path for precise monitoring of agricultural plastic mulching due to its objective and large-scale dynamic monitoring advantages. However, existing research mainly relies on single modal remote sensing data such as optical remote sensing and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) to extract target ground objects. Although optical satellite data has advantages such as multi-scale spatial resolution and spectral resolution, it is often difficult to obtain effective images in key phenological periods due to cloud and fog obstruction; SAR images have strong penetration ability, but their scattering intensity is affected by complex interactions of multiple physical properties such as surface roughness, geometric structure (orientation, slope), dielectric constant (mainly affected by water content), etc., resulting in serious "same object different spectrum" and "same spectrum different object" phenomena. Therefore, by combining the advantages of optical and SAR data, the information limitations of single modal can be effectively broken through, and the extraction accuracy of agricultural plastic mulching can be improved. However, existing researches mainly focus on the fusion of single-phase optical and SAR images, and pay insufficient attention to the time dynamic characteristics of mulched crops, and there are limitations in dealing with complex interactions among multi-temporal and multi-modal data. In addition, plastic greenhouses and plastic films have obvious three-dimensional elevation differences from other ground objects, but existing methods generally ignore the unique and key feature factor of nDSM elevation information, which limits the model's ability to distinguish complex ground cover types.

[0005] In addition to the characteristics of remote sensing data, image processing methods are also crucial in high-precision mapping of agricultural plastic mulching. Current mainstream methods include the pixel method, the object-oriented method, and traditional machine learning algorithms (such as support vector machines and random forests), but they are all limited by the manual feature design paradigm. With the rapid development of computer technology, deep learning can autonomously capture complex spatial-spectral features in remote sensing images through end-to-end feature learning and powerful nonlinear modeling capabilities, improving the recognition accuracy of target ground objects. Semantic segmentation, as an important branch of deep learning in the field of computer vision, has shown significant advantages in target recognition due to its pixel-level classification, automated feature learning, and strong spatial context modeling capabilities.
